My family and other animals.

An English family decamps to the Greek island of Corfu, and manages to make the place madder than it was already. Hilarious vignettes of the family's exploits interspersed with stunning descriptions of the author's observations of the natural world. The encounter between the gecko and the mantis is unparalleled.

A good laugh as always, though I must admit I'd prefer less of the family and more of the animals...
